Towards the development of norovirus antiviral drugs: building a unique toolbox of model systems to study the efficacy and mode of action of new inhibitors KU Leuven
Human noroviruses (HuNoVs) are single stranded, positive sense RNA viruses belonging to the Caliciviridae family. HuNoV infections result in vomiting and watery non-bloody diarrhea. Infections occur worldwide and are an important health issue that affects all age groups, resulting annually in 200,000 deaths. Infections occur via the fecal-oral route, by consumption of contaminated food or water and by person-to-person contact. HuNoV ...
Building Information Models (BIM) as a facilitator for energy neutral and zero-carbon buildings KU Leuven
Building Information Models (BIM) as a facilitator for energy neutral and zero-carbon buildings This PhD-project is a joint collaboration between the University of Leuven and the BBRI (Belgian Building Research Institute) and focuses on the many sources with valuable data that nowadays become available for the built environment such as Building Information Models (BIM). In this research project it is explored how this data can maximally be ...
Automated reconstruction of Building Information Model objects from point cloud data KU Leuven
As-built Building Information Models are becoming increasingly popular in the Architectural, Engineering and Construction industry. These models reflect the state of a building up to as-built conditions and are used in numerous applications such as refurbishment, facility management and project planning. The production of these models includes the acquisition of the structure with remote sensing techniques and the manual placement of the ...
Quantum Cosmology: From model building to prediction making KU Leuven
Physics aims to describe nature on all scales and as such its holy grail is to find a theory of quantum gravity. Currently, the best candidate for the theory of quantum gravity is string theory. If string theory is the correct theory of nature, we need to be able to build a model of the universe within this theory which is consistent with current observations and that can make predictions for upcoming observations. In this thesis we focus on ...

Business-Oriented Data Analytics: Advances in Profit-Driven Model Building and Fraud Detection KU Leuven
In recent years, the ever-larger becoming avalanche of data poses a new set of challenges for businesses. Yet, where there is risk, there also lies opportunity! Consequently, businesses rely more than ever on “smart” algorithms to stay ahead of their competition.
As for the mature market of a mobile phone service provider, for example, it is vital to the provider’s business to prevent its customers from leaving the company (i.e., from ...
